Description
Correct English: A New Perspective For over 150 years, the definition of 'correct' English has been narrowly tested. This book challenges that narrow view, offering a more just and knowledgeable perspective on English writing for educators, students, employers, and scholars. It explores common myths about correct English, such as those surrounding student writing and the impact of the internet on academic writing. By examining these myths in context and exploring their consequences, readers will gain a deeper understanding of written English today. This title is also available as open access on Cambridge Core. With accessible visuals and examples, this book provides an engaging overview of the complex nature of written English. It shows how to move beyond finding errors and instead seek patterns in English writing.
